2. The second term of an arithmetic sequence is 24 and the fifth term is 3

Find the first term and the common difference.

Answer:

a1=31

d=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

a2=24

a5=3

Formula for Finding C. Difference

d=An-Ak/n-k

d=3-24/5-2

d=-21/3

d= -7

3=a1+(5-1)-7

3=a1+(4)-7

3=a1+ (-28)

a1= 31

or

24=a1+(2-1)-7

24=a1+(1)-7

24=a1-7

a1=31
